Consultant to conduct Mid Term Review of KMAP project at Farm Africa

Farm Africa is implementing the Kenya Market-led Aquaculture Programme (KMAP), a four year project that aims to create a vibrant aquaculture industry that generates sustainable income, food security and employment. KMAP has the following objectives:

1. Sustainably increase production and productivity of medium to large scale fish farmers, hatcheries and fish feed producers
2. Increase access to markets for medium to large scale fish farmers and input suppliers
3. Enhance the enabling environment to support aquaculture development.

The KMAP programme is seeking a consultant to conduct its mid-term review. This study is aimed to provide a mid-term assessment of the KMAP program to determine whether the interventions are contributing towards achieving the set objectives. The purpose of the Review is to assess:

• Delivered outputs: To determine the extent to which the intervention has achieved its outputs in line with the TOC and generate insights into progress of the programme towards its planned objectives, and capture lessons that can be incorporated so as to enhance its impact.
• Project outcomes and impact: To determine progress made to date and provide an assessment of whether the programme is on the right track to achieve its impact across the three result areas.
• Sustainability: To analyse the risks that are likely to affect the persistence of Project outcomes in the short, medium and long term.
• Specifically review the extent of synergies created with other relevant stakeholders across the aquaculture value chain.
• Identify key challenges and successes in implementing the programme activities so far and understand why they occurred in order to generate lessons learnt and good practices.
• Identify forward looking recommendations that could guide the programme in their interventions and to further strategic and programme planning, design and management.
